Hello everyone, this is painful for me but here goes.

NO RESERVE, STARTING PRICE IS THE RESERVE.....IF ONLY ONE PERSON BIDS, ITS GONE.

This is a 1972 Chevrolet MonteCarlo which I named Delilah . The paint is blue on the sides and black over the top to include the hood, roof and trunk. There are some rust spots on the body to include the driver door bottom area, the left quarter panel by the door, the right rear quarter panel under bondo, the lower left and right areas of the rear window, the rain gutter for the trunk, the trunk pan which needs replaced (could not upload picture for trunk pan but expect center piece needing replaced).

The interior is good, but is starting to spread on stitching on certain areas(not noticeable). The carpet is great, The dash (Green color) is unsecured, light switch works but unsecured due to broken plastic. Ceiling is good no rips or tears.

The ignition is still original with an added push button start, electric kill switch for car, Electric fuel pump with switch. Rear have air shocks that hold air, dual exhaust with nice sound not loud.

The car was in my garage and only driven about 1 time every three months around the block. It needs an oil change and better gas. Currently parked outside.

The motor is a newer model (possibly early 90's) Chevrolet 350 which runs very good (milage unknown). The transmission is a 400 which leaks oil when I leave it parked, but runs strong The carb is a 750 double pumper holley. New radiator with one electric fan. The car runs so cool half the time I doesn't even need the fan.

The car could use tires, ball joints. The brakes work but need bleeding or master cylinder??? The front wheel wells are plastic but has the right one partly broken. The A/C is not hooked up but it does have the newer style compressor sitting on the motor.

There are things that are not easily described that can only be seen in person. I hope that I mentioned key topics that would otherwise surprise you if not mentioned. The rest should be only positive aspects of my car which can be viewed in the pictures. Just remember this car is an old muscle car looking for a new home that needs someone with the time and money it deserves.

I wouldn't take this car on a road trip, mainly because of tires and ball joints. Could it make a trip the way it is??? who knows, I've done worst with no problems. The last time this car was on the road for sure as a daily driver was in 2008.

If you have any questions, just email me or call/text 956 537 9781 and ask for Rafael.

Payment is accepted in cash only. A deposit of a non refundable 200.00 should be transferred via Paypal as soon as the auction is over. I could deliver within Texas for a fee mainly to cover gas expenses.

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica

Fri, 03 Aug 2012

If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.

2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.
